One of the features that I love about Boston are the churches, they are nice and old, grand and majestic. The builders were very serious about their churches back then and you can tell by the absolute solidity of the stones. These churches are meant to stand the test of time. I only took pictures of three churches this time but I could have easily made an entire day of it and not only an hour. Today was the perfect day to do it as well, it was partly sunny and a balmy 79 degrees. An utter joy for walking through the streets of Boston.

I also stumbled upon a photo shoot which I think is always exciting. I also took a few pictures of this and that, anything that caught my eye.

A friend indeed

Finish this sentence: “My closest friend is…”

I'm fairly lucky that not many of those who are close to me read my blog. Lol. What I find to be so wonderful about friendship is that it can be different with the various people in your life. My best friend from my earliest memories is still someone who I consider to be my best friend even though we don't see each other. However, I know that if we get on the phone, it would be exactly as if time had stopped and we were back to the days of Astoria Park, her bedroom, my kitchen and the pizzeria at Queensborough Plaza.

I have another best friend who has moved away but the same holds true for her, all we have to do is send an e-mail, pick up the phone and poof, the dynamic is the same with no time lost whatsoever.

My husband is my best friend as well, we are team Nichols and whatever affects me, affects him and vice versa and if that doesn't make for the definition of a best friendship or at least one of the qualifications, then I need to revise the definition.

My little sister is another example, we are tied by so many bonds and so many memories that even though it is a different type of friendship, it is still of epic importance.

I am truly lucky to have these important connections in my life.

And I haven't forgotten my WordPress friends, these relationships are vital to me as well. They have their own little niche all their own. 🙂
